The new album's 13 songs (10 of them being heard for the first time) were recorded between January 1968 and February 1970 with (mostly) the personnel that would become the Band of Gypsys: Hendrix on guitar & vocals, Billy Cox on bass, and Buddy Miles on drums. The album will be released on multiple formats including CD, digital, and as a numbered 180-gram audiophile vinyl 2LP.
